Western Front
Big German trench raid north-east of Verdun, taking 200 French prisoners.
French troops raid German lines at Malancourt on a front of 1400 meters to a depth of 800 meters.
[note: I have to wonder if this is a repeat of the raids yesterday, or there exchanges of raids two days in a row. The report of prisoners taken inclines me to the former]
Daylight air-raid by British on Kaiserslautern (Pfalz), hitting the barrack and railway station.
Britain: Two German deserters tell BEF XVIII Corps to expect 6-hour barrage, but no date.
